Link Community Development Invitation to Bid for the Translation of Toolkits From English Into Amharic and Somaligna Jobs in Ethiopia
Job DescriptionLink Community Development Ethiopia (LCDE) is part of Link Education International (LEI), a family of not for profit organisations working together to transform education for children and communities across impoverished areas of Ethiopia, Malawi, Rwanda and Uganda.
Since our foundation in 1995 we have worked in 3,000 schools and improved the lives of over two million children through unique and effective school improvement models.
We guide governments and educators to adopt low-cost solutions to improve learning and support for children, with a focus on literacy, numeracy and inclusion for the most marginalised children.
Through a partnership delivery model which embeds piloting and learning within local systems, we influence changes to policy, practice and accountability on a national scale, and our interventions are regularly adapted and replicated by governments and NGOs in new countries and contexts.
LEI, based in Edinburgh, Scotland supports all project, M&E, fundraising, finance and governance activities in our four sub-Saharan partner countries.
